Okay thanks for the tip Doug.

I copied (recursively) my /var/www/mythweb directory to /var/www/html:

# ll /var/www/html
total 20
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-03-18 11:45 addon-modules/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1150 2010-01-07 05:13 favicon.ico
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  215 2010-01-07 05:13 index.html
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2010-08-24 04:01 mythweb/

I renamed /var/www/mythweb "/var/www/not-mythweb" just to be on the safe 
side.

I then deleted and rebuilt the soft link to /var/lib/mythweb/data in the 
mythweb directory.

Next, I copied /usr/share/doc/mythtv-mythweb/mythweb.conf.apache to 
/etc/httpd/conf/myweb.conf.

I edited the <Directory "/var/www/html/data"> statement to read 
<Directory "/var/www/html/mythweb">.  I didn't really find anything else 
that looked like it needed to be changed. Did I overlook something?

I then commented out any reference I had to mythweb in 
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and restarted the httpd service.

I cleared my browser cache and reloaded the mythweb page:

Access forbidden!
You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is 
either no index document or the directory is read-protected.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster 
<mailto:root at shuttle>.
Error 403
pvr <http://pvr/>
Apache/2.2.14 (Mandriva Linux/PREFORK-1.5mdv2010.0)

Is there anything else I should have done because the error log 
indicates I'm still hammering at /var/www/mythweb?!

# tail -n 1 /var/log/httpd/error_log
